Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Getting my kids to do their chores is always a bit of a chore too, msbelle.

Today is muggy and kinda gross, which goes with summer rain in LA, but it doesn't look like it'll rain again. Cody is taking the kids to a thing soon, I should try to write today.

Flying out of SFO is so much more pleasant than O'Hare, man. Free WiFi, outlets to charge electronics, no 24 hour news cycle on the TV. I'll grab something from the sushi & noodle place before I board. Also, I forgot that I got Silver status on Virgin America, so free bag check and priority boarding.

Burrell, our local forecast says it's supposed to be sunny today but rain all night into tomorrow morning, for what it's worth.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I should be cleaning or making food for the week ahead. Instead I have an Amazon box, a towel, a ping pong ball, and a playful cat. The cat definitely wins.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm not doing shit today, apparently. I guess I needed it?

The CSA I'm doing this year drops off across the street from my house, which is great, but they do it on Tuesday, which I kind of hate. One year I had one on Friday, which made it tough to have after-work plans, but meant that I dealt with everything right away on Saturday. I've actually done pretty well this week.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I feel like I did a bunch yesterday (even if it was dance class, a movie, and hanging with friends) so am being lazy now. Though I should do some laundry.

Yeah, today I'm mostly just flying across the country, although I'll probably do laundry when I get home.

I have vacuumed or smashed so many flies, it is creeping me out. No idea their source, I've cleaned everything out.

Mopping, right. Up next.

I can see the clouds already gathering, but it's still mostly blue skies where I am. But there are more gray clouds to the east, where you live. So okay, I can believe that there will be rain tonight somewhere in the LA basin.

So my sister completely messed up our summer camp plans and then backed out of vacation. I'm very annoyed but trying (and so far succeeding) in not getting angry. It'll be fine I'm sure. I just need to readjust my expectations and things tend to work out fine.
